Familial Ties (with no shoelaces!)

[Nilpaurion Felagund]

You link a character to another, using these handy-dandy symbols:

-m> = means that the previous one is the mother of the next one.
-f> = means father.
-d> = means daughter.
-s> = means son.

OK, here's an example:

Q: Fëanor -> Galadriel
A: Fëanor -s> Finwë -f> Finarfin -f> Galadriel

That was easy, wasn't it. now try Frodo and Bilbo Baggins. Have fun! smilies/cool.gif

->Elenrod

[Sleepy Ranger]

Frodo -s> Drogo -s> Fosco -s> Largo -s> Balbo -F> Mungo -f> Bungo -f> Bilbo

There you go

[The Perky Ent]

Bilbo -s> Bungo -s> Mungo -s> Balbo -f> Ponto -b> Lily -s> Largo -f> Fosco -f> Dora -s> Dudo -b> Drogo -f> Frodo

[The Perky Ent]

By the way, that's how my post would've worked if -b> meant brother and -s> meant sister! Sorry about that!

[Nilpaurion Felagund]

Sleepy Ranger, you're correct! Absolutely correct!

And vy ze vay, welcome to the 'Downs, The Perky Ent! smilies/cool.gif

[The Perky Ent]

Try my thing where -S> means son, -D> means daughter, -f> means father, -m> means mother, -b> means brother and -s> means sister. Try it for FRODO and MERRY! Have fun.

[Gil-Galad]

Its sleepy rangers turn, maybe you should take at look at the quiz room rules...

[Sleepy Ranger]

Next question.
Nain I -> Fili

[The Perky Ent]

Nain -f> Thrain I -f> Thorin I -f> Gloin -f> Oin -f>Nain II -f> Dain -f>Thror -f> Thrain II -f> Dis -F> Fili.

Top that!

[Nilpaurion Felagund]

Dis -F> Fili.

Perky Ent, maybe you mean -m>. smilies/wink.gif

[The Perky Ent]

Well sorry if I can't tell that "Dis" is a man or woman. Oops

Dis -f> and Dis -m> are kinda the same...

[Nilpaurion Felagund]

Dís was the daughter of Thráin II. She is the only dwarf-woman named in these histories.

LotR, Appendix A,III


Dís is female... smilies/wink.gif

[Finwe]

Yes, indeed, Dis was most definitely female. But, of course, you probably couldn't tell her apart from Fili's father. Therein lies the main problem, methinks.

[The Perky Ent]

Well if it makes you happy:

Nain I -f> Thrain I -f> Thorin I -f> Gloin -f> Oin -f>Nain II -f> Dain -f>Thror -f> Thrain II -f> Dis -m> Fili.


HAPPY!

[Sleepy Ranger]

The Eldacar that you mentioned was the King of Arnor, not the later King of Gondor who was the son of Valacar and Vidumavi. This seems to be a very common mistake.

If I may ask, this game requires lots of research...unless you already memorized every single person ever mentioned! But I was wondering...where to y'all get your info from?

[Finwe]

One word, Perky Ent, "Google." You can find EVERYTHING using that.

Hmm... let's see...

I'm feeling lazy.


Ingwë --> Arwen

[The Perky Ent]

Ingwë -b> Indis -m> Finarfin -f> Galadriel -m> Celebrian -m> Arwen

PS. Google eh? I use Annals of Arda (http://www.annalsofarda.dk)

[Elrond of Rivendell]

Don't you dispose of an edition of The Silmarillion and of LotR with appendices, The Perky Ent? There you would be able to find 95% of everything you need. smilies/smile.gif
Disposing of Unfinished Tales with its genealogy of the Numenorean Kings gives you another 3%. The rest are tricky ones, but they surely can be found very quickly via Google.

Greetings,
EfR

[The Perky Ent]

Yeah, but the Silmarilion is a fairly large book. It would be hard to go over the whole thing when i could just check on a website. Plus, i have my own family tree i made for quick referance! you know, to fill out those ...

By the way, FINWE, check this post!

[The Perky Ent]

Finwe?

[Elrond of Rivendell]

Actually I was speaking of an edition of the Silmarillion containing very nice Family Trees (House of Finwe, House of Olwe and Elwe, House of Beor and the House of Haleth). As I said before, with those informations, you can easily solve family tree riddles nearly totally.

[The Perky Ent]

Well...you could've filled in the blanks by saying Faramir -f> Elboron -s> Eowyn and Leod -s> Fram


Otherwise, it's right!

[The Perky Ent]

Finwë! it's you're turn!

[Finwe]

Ah, ok.


Ingil --> Elboron

[The Perky Ent]

Ingil -s> Ingwe -b> Indis -m> Finarfin -f> Galadriel -m> Celebrian -m> Arwen -d> Elrond -s> Elwing -d> Dior -s> Barahir -f> Rian -m> Denethor I -f> Boromir -f> Cirion -f> Hallas -f> Hurin II -f> Belecthor I -f> Morwen -(grandmother)> Egalmoth -f> Beren -f> Beregond -f> Belecthor II -f> Thorondir -f> Turin II -f> Turgonn -f> Ecthelion II -f> Denethor II -f> Faramir -f> Elboron

[Finwe]

Whoa... definitely off!


I'll help you along a bit though, you seem to have caught the wrong Dior. smilies/wink.gif

[The Perky Ent]

yeah! i know im off, but can you give me a hint of where i went wrong. i mean, a more specific hint?

[Finwe]

Ok...

You don't need to involve Elwing at all.

[Silmarien]

Ingil -s> Ingwë -b> Indis -m> Finarfin -f> Galadriel -m> Celebrian -m> Arwen -d> Elrond -s> Earendil-f> Elros -f> Vardamir -f> Amandil -f> Elendil -f> Silmarien -m> Valandil -f> ..... -f> Eärendur

[Finwe]

Oooh... you're very close


But, I'm afraid, I'm going to be nitpicky, and you have one or two tiny errors in there.

[The Perky Ent]

Can you give me a hint? Because i'm just too lazy

[Finwe]

Sorry, Perky Ent, I'm giving this one to Silmarien for both effort and almost-there accuracy. Of course, there were a couple of things that were wrong (i.e. Elendil's good ol' da is Amandil), but I'm giving it to you for effort.

BTW, Perky Ent, take a look at this (it's part of your post):

Dior -s> Barahir -f> Rian -m> Denethor I -f> Boromir -f> Cirion -f> Hallas -f> Hurin II -f> Belecthor I -f> Morwen -(grandmother)> Egalmoth -f> Beren -f> Beregond -f> Belecthor II -f> Thorondir -f> Turin II -f> Turgonn -f> Ecthelion II -f> Denethor II -f> Faramir -f> Elboron


How in bright heaven did you get from Dior of the First Age to Barahir and then to Rian and then to Denethor I??????

<font size=1 color=339966>[ 10:31 PM February 05, 2004: Message edited by: Finwe ]

[The Perky Ent]

Silmarien, if you're there, please make up a new thingie for this game!

[Silmarien]

Sorry about my mistake but it took a while to type it all out and then when it was wrongish I couldn't be stuffed checking then typing it all again. Anyway try this.

Theoden and Denethor two ways.

[The Perky Ent]

This should be easy!

Theoden -s> Thengel -f> Theodwyn -m> Eowyn -m> Elboron -s> Faramir s-> Denethor


Well, glad that's over!

<font size=1 color=339966>[ 1:24 AM February 08, 2004: Message edited by: The Perky Ent ]

[Silmarien]

Aye but tis only one way, I asked for two.

[NightKnight]

Theoden -s> Thengel -f> Theodwyn -m> Eomer -f> Elfwine -s> Lothiriel -d> Imrahil -s> Adrahil -f> Finduilas -m> Boromir -s> Denethor

Theoden -s> Thengel -f> Theodwyn -m> Eowyn -m> Elboron -s> Faramir -s> Denethor

[Silmarien]

The Night Knight has pray continue good sir.

[The Perky Ent]

<font color=red>Silmarien, although it is true that NightKnight has answered your question, you don't get to ask for two different answers at a time. It's one per question! </font color=red>

[NightKnight]

Orodreth -> Turin

[The Perky Ent]

Orodreth -s> Aldarion -s> Earendur -f> Amlaith -f> Beleg -f> Mallor -f> Celepharn -f> Celebrindor -s> Malvegil -s> Argeleb I -s> Arveleg I -s> Araphor -f> Argeleb II -f> Arvegil -f> Arveleg II -f> Araval -f> Araphant -f> Arvedui -f> Aranarth -f> Arahael -f> Aranuir -f>Aravir -f> Aragorn I -f> Araglas -f> Arahad I -s> Aragost -f> Aravorn -f> Arahad II -f> Arassuil -f> Arathorn I -f> Argonui -f> Arador -f> Arathorn II -f> Aragorn II -f> Eldarion -s> Arwen -d> Elrond -s> Elwing -d> Dior -s> Beren -s> Barahir -s> Bregor -s> Bregolas -f> Baragund -f> Morwen -m> Turin

[The Perky Ent]

NightKnight? Please post!

[NightKnight]

Actually, you have the wrong Orodreth. The one I meant is the elf in Silm. Nice work though.

[The Perky Ent]

Orodreth -s> Finarfin -f> Galadriel -m> Celebrian -m> Arwen -d> Elrond -s> Elwing -d> Dior-s> Beren -s> Barahir -s> Bregor -s> Bregolas -f> Baragund -f> Morwen -m> Turin

Now does it work?

[NightKnight]

Just one tiny mistake: Bregor -s> Bregolas. Bregor was the father of Bregolas, not the other way around, but you'll get it anyway. :)

[The Perky Ent]

Let's see...i need to think of a really hard one! OH! This will do:

Pelendur ---> Indis


That should occupy y'all for a while!

:smokin: :smokin:

[Finwe]

Pelendur -?> House of Hurin -s> Hurin of Emyn Arnen -?> (Numenorean descent) -s> Elros Tar-Minyatur -s> Earendil -s> Idril -d> Turgon -s> Fingolfin -s> Indis

[The Perky Ent]

I hate to nit pic, but i like to watch you suffer, Finwe! You can fill in the blanks! Here's a hint! If my memory serves right, Pelendur is either the 1st or 2nd steward. You can trace the line of stewards until you can find other links that weave in and out of the fabric of the Stewards of Gondor!

[The Perky Ent]

Anyone want to take a stab at it?

[The Perky Ent]

...anybody...

[NightKnight]

I've found a solution, but it contains one or two small holes. Is it possible to do it without them?

[Arvedui III]

*Pant* I haven't done this before*Pant*But I think*Pant*I have it.

[The Perky Ent]

Looks good Arvedui! *wink* your go! *wink*

[Arvedui III]

Umm...yeah. Thanks *Looks quizicly at the Perky Ent and winks back.*

Ok then, maybe something easy(ier) for a change.

Cirion--->Eorl

Edit: Opps, sorry. Cirdan and Cirion are different people.

[The Perky Ent]

Cirion -f> Hallas -f> Hurin II -f> Belecthor I -f> Morwen -grandm> Egalmoth -f> Beren -f> Beregond -f> Belecthor II -f> Thorondir -f> Turin II -f> Turgon -f> Ecthelion II -f> Denethor II -f> Faramir -f> Elboron -s> Eowyn -d> Theodwyn -d>Thengel -s> Fengel -s> Flocwine -s> Floca-s> Walda -s> Leofa -s>Frelaf -s> Hilde-d>Gram -s> Deor -s> Goldwine s-> Freawine -s>Frea-s> Aldor -s> Brego -s>Eorl

[Arvedui III]

Herm...yup, that's it. Your go Perky Ent.

[The Perky Ent]

OK. How about:


Nerdanel ---> Brandir

[NightKnight]

Nerdanel -m> Maedhros -s> Feanor -s> Finwe -f> Fingolfin -f> Turgon -f> Idril -m> Earendil -s> Tuor -s> Huor -s> Galdor -s> Hador -f> Gloredhel -m> Handir -f> Brandir

[The Perky Ent]

That's a big 10-4 NK! Your go!

[NightKnight]

Thank you. :)

Reginard Took -> Lotho Sackville-Baggins

[The Perky Ent]

Well, let's see:

Reginard Took -s> Adelard Took -s> Flambard Took -s> Isembard Took -s> Geronitus Took -f> Belladonna -m> Bilbo Baggins -s> Bungo Baggins -s> Mungo Baggins -f> Longo Baggins -f> Otho Sackville Baggins -f> Lotho Sackville Baggins

Is that it?

[NightKnight]

That is indeed it. Good work! :)

[The Perky Ent]

We've been doing really hard ones lately, so i'm giving y'all a break!


Frodo Baggins ---> Meriadoc Brandybuck

[NightKnight]

Frodo Baggins -s> Primula Brandybuck -d> Gorbadoc Brandybuck -f> Rorimac Brandybuck -f> Saradoc Brandybuck-f> Meriadoc Brandybuck

[The Perky Ent]

Yep! Merriadoc is Frodo's...2nd cousin? I'm too lazy. Let's just say he's his...Relation! Your turn, NightKnight!

[NightKnight]

Aren't all hobbits related in one way or another? :D

Anyway, try Adrahil -> Hurin of the Keys

[The Perky Ent]

If your talking about the Adrahil from Dol-Amroth, then

Adrahil -f> Imrahil -f> Lothiriel -m> Elfwine -s> Eomer -s> Theodwyn -d> Morwen of Lossernach -d> Hurin of the Keys

[NightKnight]

Exactly was I'm talking about. Your turn. :)

[The Perky Ent]

ok, let's see here. How about...



Amroth ---> Rian

[Silmarien]

Rian -m> Tuor -f> Earendil -f> Elrond -f> Elrohir -s> Celebrian -d> Celeborn -f> Amroth

(EDIT: questionmarks apeared instead of dashs)

[The Perky Ent]

Correct! But for future posting, it should say:

Amroth -s> Celeborn -f> Celebrian -m> Elrohir -s> Elrond -s> Earendil -s> Tuor -s> Rian


I yeald my power! The thread is yours!

[Silmarien]

Oops, sorry, and even though I put it down because it's the answer you wanted I must say it is not completly certain whether Amroth was Celeborn and Galadriel's son. Anywho back to the wonderfully complicated hobbit family trees. Good luck :)

Isengrim the II -> Rorimac Brandybuck

[Nilpaurion Felagund]

OK...

Isengrim II -f> Isumbras III -f> Ferumbras II -f> Fortinbras II -f> Gerontius -f> Hildigrim -f> Adalgrim -f> Esmeralda -m> Meriadoc the Magnificent :) -s> Saradoc Brandybuck -s> Rorimac Brandybuck

[The Perky Ent]

Um...Silmarien? Are you there?

[The Perky Ent]

Silmarien?

[NightKnight]

Well, it's been almost a week, and since Nil is correct, I think we should move on with this thread.

[The Saucepan Man]

It may well be that Nilpaurion has the correct answer, but it still needs to be confirmed. Either PM Silmarien to find out or wait until the 10 days are up.

Thanks. :)

[Silmarien]

Yes Nil is right please continue. Sorry that it's taken me so long to reply. :(

[Nilpaurion Felagund]

I took the time to think of a seriously difficult conundrum. Since none can be found, I've decided to raise the bar:

Thorin Oakenshield -> Gimli -> Thorin III Stonehelm

Enjoy! :)

[The Perky Ent]

Well...normally you're only suppost to do two, but...

Thorin Oakenshield -s> Thráin II -s> Thrór -s> Dain -s> Náin II -f> Borin -f> Farin -f> Gróín -f> Glóín -f> Gimli -s> Glóín -s> Gróin -s> Farin -s> Borin -s> Náin II -f> Dáín I -f> Grór -f> Nain -f> Dain II Ironfoot -f> Thorin III Stonehelm

[Nilpaurion Felagund]

Well...normally you're only suppost to do two, but...
...but I'm the ultra-powerful thread starter! MWAHAHAHAHA!!!

OK, weirdo alert. Bring out the straitjackets.

[The Perky Ent]

Um...Nil...you never said if i got it correct or not!:mad: :mad:

[Nilpaurion Felagund]

Don't lose your branches! You're correct!

http://forum.barrowdowns.com/ubb/icons/icon14.gif <- See?

[The Perky Ent]

Oh, right...well how about:

Gil-Galad ---> Elentir

Have fun!

[NightKnight]

You are evil...evil...making me do those long lines.

Anyway, here it is:

Gil-galad -s> Fingon -s> Fingolfin -f> Turgon -f> Idril Celebrindal -m> Eärendil -f> Elrond -f> Arwen -m> Eldarion -s> Aragorn II -s> Arathorn II -s> Arador -s> Argonui -s> Arathorn I -s> Arassuil -s> Arahad II -s> Aravorn -s> Aragost -s> Arahad I -s> Araglas -s> Aragorn I -s> Aravir -s> Aranuir -s> Arahael -s> Aranarth -s> Arvedui -s> Araphant -s> Araval s> Arveleg II -s> Arvegil -s> Argeleb II -s> Araphor -s> Arveleg I -s> Argeleb I -s> Malvegil -s> Celebrindor -s> Celepharn -s> Mallor -s> Beleg -s> Amlaith -s> Eärendur -s> Elendur -s> Valandur -s> Tarondor -s> Tarcil -s> Arantar -s> Eldacar -s> Valandil -s> Isildur -s> Elendil -s> Amandil -s> Númendil -f> Elentir

Actually, I took most of it from one of the older posts on this thread. :D

[The Perky Ent]

Correct! And yes, the Aragorn Isildur relation has been used a lot, so you can copy and paste! Your go!

[NightKnight]

Alright...my turn to be evil, yes?

Gimli -> Thorin III

Not that evil.

[Miriel]

Gimli -s> Gloin -s> Groin -s> Farin -s> Borin -s> Nain II -f> Dain I -f> Gror -f> Nain -f> Dain II -f> Thorin III?

[NightKnight]

Works fine. :)

[The Perky Ent]

Miriel, it's your turn!

[Miriel]

Beor -> Manthor

Have fun!

[The Perky Ent]

Beor -f> Belen -f> Beldir -f> Belemir -f> Beren -s> Adanel -d> Malach -f> Maglor -f> Hathol -f> Hador -f> Gloredhel -m> Handir -s> Haldir -s> Halmir -s> -f> Hirel -m> Meleth -m> Manthor

[Miriel]

Ah! Forgot! My apologies ... this is correct. :)

[Nilpaurion Felagund]

'tis so fun to shout. :)

[The Perky Ent]

ok...um....fingolfin and beren

[Nilpaurion Felagund]

Fingolfin -f> Turgon -f> Idril -m> Eärendil -f> Elros -s> Elwing -d> Dior -s> Beren

Top that! :)

[The Perky Ent]

Nope! That's absolutly wrong! Man Nil, you're so stupid! Just kidding! You are right! Your turn! :confused: i just put that because i like the icon!

[Nilpaurion Felagund]

Get a life, Elf!

Elenrod still blubbering.

OK. I'm posting the question.

Leod -> Adrahil

[NightKnight]

Léod -f> Eorl -f> Brego -f> Aldor -f> Frea -f> Freawine -f> Goldwine -f>Deor -f> Gram -f> Hild -m> Frealaf -f> Brytta -f> Walda -f> Folca -f> Folcwine -f> Fengel -f> Thengel -f> Theodwyn -m> Eomer -f> Elfwine -s> Lothiriel -d> Imrahil -s> Adrahil

[Nilpaurion Felagund]

^ The hand...

[NightKnight]

Amrod -> Elendil

[The Perky Ent]

Amrod -s> Feanor -s> Finwe -f> Finarfin -f> Galadriel -m> Celebriand -m> Arwen -m> Eldarion -s> Aragorn II -s> Arathorn II -s> Arador -s> Argonui -s> Arathorn I -s> Arassuil -s> Arahad II -s> Aravorn -s> Aragost -s> Arahad I -s> Araglas -s> Aragorn I -s> Aravir -s> Aranuir -s> Arahael -s> Aranarth -s> Arvedui -s> Araphant -s> Araval s> Arveleg II -s> Arvegil -s> Argeleb II -s> Araphor -s> Arveleg I -s> Argeleb I -s> Malvegil -s> Celebrindor -s> Celepharn -s> Mallor -s> Beleg -s> Amlaith -s> Eärendur -s> Elendur -s> Valandur -s> Tarondor -s> Tarcil -s> Arantar -s> Eldacar -s> Valandil -s> Isildur -s> Elendil



It's actually quite easy once you get to Agagorn II :p

[NightKnight]

And that would be correct. :)

[The Perky Ent]

Yay! And the peoples are:

Celebrimbor -----> Arvedui

[Nilpaurion Felagund]

Celebrimbor -s> Curufin -s> Fëanor -s> Finwë -f> Finarfin :) -f> Galadriel -m> Celebrían -m> Arwen -m> Eldarion -s> Aragorn II -s> Arathorn II -s> Arador -s> Argonui -s> Arathorn I -s> Arassuil -s> Arahad II -s> Aravorn -s> Aragost -s> Arahad I -s> Araglas -s> Aragorn I -s> Aravir -s> Aranuir -s> Arahael -s> Aranarth -s> Arvedui

Hope that's fine. ;)

[Nilpaurion Felagund]

Hey Perky Ent? Am I right or am I right? :)

[The Perky Ent]

You are of course...incorrect! Incorrect, that is, about being wrong. you are incorrect about being wrong! Your turn!

[Nilpaurion Felagund]

"Was there ever any one like [Aragorn]?" [Pippin] said. "Except Gandalf, of course. I think they must be related..."

(LotR V 8 - emphasis mine)

...and [Eru] made first the Ainur, the Holy Ones, that were the offspring of his thought...

(The Silmarillion, Ainulindalë - emphasis mine)

What's my question, and the answer? :) Enjoy!

[The Perky Ent]

Um...Nil...although your creative, the way the thread works, as you should know as you made it....is you give to names and show their family ties. AS for your question...is it Saruman or Radagast and um...Manwe? Whatever! maybe you're thinking of the wrong thread, but that's not how it works!

[Nilpaurion Felagund]

Aragorn -> Gandalf

[NightKnight]

Aragorn -s> Eru -f> Gandalf

(Children of Iluvatar)

[Nilpaurion Felagund]

Look at the second quote. Only the Ainur are the direct offsprings of Ilúvatar.

Now all you have to do is link Aragorn to an Ainu...

P.S. Sorry for the lengthy disappearance. For the next two months my comings and goings wll be unpredictable.

[Fingolfin II]

Aragorn -f>Eldarion -s>Arwen d->Elrond -s>Elwing -d>Dior -s>Luthien -d> Melian -d>Eru -f> Gandalf

[Nilpaurion Felagund]

Perfect. ;)

[Fingolfin II]

Thanks Nil. Try

Amandil -> Celebrimbor

[Nilpaurion Felagund]

Amandil -f> Elendil -f> Isildur -f> Valandil -f> Eldacar -f> Arantar -f> Tarcil -f> Tarondor -f> Valandur -f> Elendur -f> Eärendur -f> Amlaith -f> Beleg -f> Mallor -f> Celepharn -f> Celebrindor -f> Malvegil -f> Argeleb I -f> Arveleg I -f> Araphor -f> Argeleb II -f> Arvegil -f> Arveleg II -f> Araval -f> Araphant -f> Arvedui -f> Aranarth -f> Arahael -f> Aranuir -f> Aravir -f> Aragorn I -f> Araglas -f> Arahad I -f> Aragost -f> Aravorn -f> Arahad II -f> Arassuil -f> Arathorn I -f> Argonui -f> Arador -f> Arathorn II -f> Aragorn II -f> Eldarion -s> Arwen -d> Celebrían -d> Galadriel -d> Finarfin -s> Finwë -f> Fëanor -f> Curufin -f> Celebrimbor

Evil, evil, evil. Making me write those long lines.

[Fingolfin II]

on the brighter side, you got it right! ;)

[Nilpaurion Felagund]

Now for it:
Finrod -> Ivorwen

[Fingolfin II]

Finrod -s> Finarfin -s> Finwë -f> Fingolfin -f> Turgon -f> Idril -m> Eärendil -f> Elrond -f> Arwen -m> Eldarion -s> Aragorn II -s> Gilraen -d>Ivorwen

[Nilpaurion Felagund]

You're correct...again. ;)

[Fingolfin II]

Lol, how about Arwen->Durin (The Deathless)

[Nilpaurion Felagund]

Methinks you're confusing this thread for the "Six degrees of separation" thread. ;)

[Fingolfin II]

So it appears, because of our constant exchange. However, I did mean to put them in this Familial Ties thread. Trust me, it works :p.

I was actually inspired to ask this question by you Nil, believe it or not.

Oh and by the way, I changed Gimli to Durin the Deathless so that it could be done without skipping unknown people in between :).

[Nilpaurion Felagund]

Here goes:

Arwen -d> Elrond -s> Elwing -d> Dior Eluchil -s> Lúthien -d> Melian -> Eru -f> Aulë -> Durin I (the Deathless)

Am I right, or is my answer right?

[Fingolfin II]

This is like pass the parcel...well I guess it's your go...again...:)

[Nilpaurion Felagund]

A longer one. [insert evil smiley]

Olwë -> Elros

Two ways. You may use the -b> [brother] link once.

[Fingolfin II]

Olwë -b> Thingol -f> Luthien -m> Dior -f> Elwing -m> Elros

OR

Olwë -f> Earwen -m> Galadriel -m> Celebrian -m> Arwen -d> Elrond -b> Elros

OR

Olwë -f> Earwen -m> Galadriel -m> Celebrian -m> Arwen -d> Elrond -s> Elwing -m> Elros

OR
Olwë -f> Earwen -m> Galadriel -d> Finarfin -s> Finwë -f> Fingolfin -f> Turgon -f> Idril -m> Eärendil -f> Elros

[Nilpaurion Felagund]

Elenrod hands the the thread over to Fingolfin II.

[Fingolfin II]

Anyway, try this one-

Boromir -> Elfwine

Two ways. One shorter and one longer :).

[Nilpaurion Felagund]

Uh...which Boromir. It would presumtuous of me to use "Boromir of the Nine Walkers."

[Fingolfin II]

It's Boromir of the Nine Walkers.

[The Perky Ent]

Boromir -s> Denethor -f> Faramir -f> Elboron -s> Eowyn -d> Eomund -f> Eomer -f> Elfwine

[Fingolfin II]

Correct.

[Fingolfin II]

*Bump* Perky!

[The Perky Ent]

Roger Roger! That's a Big 10-4 Over

[Fingolfin II]

I can't be bothered thinking so I'll give you an easy one that's relatively free of pain:

Celeborn -> Luthien

[NightKnight]

That one was indeed easy:

Celeborn -s> Galadhon -f> Galathil -f> Nimloth -m> Elwing -d> Dior -s> Luthien

[Fingolfin II]

Well done.

[NightKnight]

Well well well...

Barahir (Beren's father) -> Eomer

There is a small gap in there.

[Nilpaurion Felagund]

Is Vidugavia involved?

[NightKnight]

Yes.

[The Perky Ent]

If you mean Beren Erchamion and not Beren the steward it's:

Whew, hope i'm right!

[NightKnight]

You are right, except for the fact that you were supposed to start with Barahir. ;) But don't worry, you'll get it anyway. But you could have shortened it by using the connection between Arvedui and Firiel. The floor is yours. :)

[The Perky Ent]

Woah! I did start at Beren! Wowzers! I make tons of careless mistakes, and that proves it! Anyways, the next one is

Stonehelm ---> Ironfoot


very easy

[NightKnight]

As simple as Stonehelm -s> Ironfoot

[Nilpaurion Felagund]

[The Perky Ent]

[NightKnight]

Arvedui -> Luthien

[The Perky Ent]

[NightKnight]

That's very good. Your turn. :)

[The Perky Ent]

Thanks! Um...how about...

Gil-Galad ---> Arvedui

[NightKnight]

Gil-Galad -s> Fingon -s> Fingolfin -f> Turgon -f> Idril -m> Eärendil -f> Elrond -f> Arwen -m> Eldarion -s> Aragorn II -s> Arathorn II -s> Arador -s> Argonui -s> Arathorn I -s> Arassuil -s> Arahad II -s> Aravorn -s> Aragost -s> Arahad I -s> Araglas -s> Aragorn I -s> Aravir -s> Aranuir -s> Arahael -s> Aranarth -s> Arvedui
